Jon Marsh writes that, after an 11 year absence, the DERR Golf Society (The Farmers’ Boys) returned to Erlstoke Golf Club near Westbury on 30 and 31 May for their Summer Meeting. Many thanks to Farren Drury for liaising with the club and negotiating a very competitive rate and to Andy Fontana for organising the prizes. The format was an informal warm-up on the afternoon of day 1 followed by the competitions for the Regimental Trophies the next day.
